App tries to circumvent Apple’s subscription management system
Apple tries to make it easy to end a subscription and not get members stuck in a subscription they forget about. They have one button you can click to end a subscription.
This App clearly does not want to abide by those rules. I really wish Apple would do something about this.

UPDATED July 7: We heard you, and today's update does exactly what you asked for. Who's on Second 1.8.0 is now live, and you can subscribe and manage your plan right inside the app through Apple. Your subscription shows up alongside your others in your Apple ID settings, with the one-tap cancel you mentioned. Thanks for pushing us on this. Feedback like yours is how a new app gets better. [Original Response]: Thanks for the honest feedback and to be clear, we're not trying to trap anyone. Who's on Second works across web, iOS, and all browsers, so billing runs through our website (which also lets us keep the coach price low). You can cancel anytime in about 15 seconds at whosonsecond.com → Profile → Manage Subscription. It's instant, no email, codes, extra hoops, or phone call needed. You're right that it should be easier to reach from inside the app, so we're adding a direct "Manage Subscription" link in the next update to allow a more direct path. I appreciate you flagging your experience as we are a new app and the user experience and the ratings here are incredibly important to our success or failure. Please reach out directly by opening a support ticket in the app so that we can try to make it right.

Incredibly Valuable Tool
Best app for coaches!
Being able to organize lineups, track player rotations, and make adjustments without rebuilding spreadsheets every time has been incredibly valuable. It helps me stay more organized, make better decisions, and spend less time buried in admin work. For youth baseball especially, where you’re balancing playing time, positions, pitching, catching, and last-minute changes, having a tool like this makes a real difference.
The app already solved a major problem for me, and the new features continue to add even more value. It feels like it is being actively improved by people who understand what coaches actually need. I’m incredibly happy I found it and would highly recommend it to any baseball coach who is still trying to manage lineups and rosters manually.
Responsive Developer!
Wish I’d had this tool sooner!

Thanks so much — "I don't coach to crunch numbers" is exactly why I built this. If you haven't tried auto-generate or the post-game wrap-up yet, those are the two biggest number-crunchers the app takes off your plate. Have a great season!
